Tylor Gilbert

Heritage Ranch has always been our date spot, I proposed and she said yes! Was a little disappointed the lights through the trails we not up

Had brunch on the patio! Perfect morning! Good food!

augustandmichelle domingo

We had a great experienced exploring the area. We walked in the morning. Lots of amazing scenery. Lots of trails. Walking trails are mixture of pave and gravel, depends on which trail you will take.There is a pond in the area which is perfect for fishing. Lots of trees in the surrounding.We were able to see the horses in the ranch. Another great adventure. Another great memories from Red Deer.

Doris Kibermanis

The food at the restaurant is to die for. Atmosphere is so relaxing and children love seeing the horses outside.

Jennifer Bennett

My husband and I like coming here for walks, and the kids have loved coming to the playgrounds for years. It's ways clean and beautiful.

Mag Turple

Great place to have gathering or just walk around. Public washrooms and a restaurant on site

Gordon Wright

I've both enjoyed an evening out at Heritage Ranch, and spent the day for work involved in planning sessions. Both were handled with a great balance of cozy and professional. The dinner service was excellent and we were treated to a delicious meal. The meeting room was well appointed and comfortable (if a tad warm) and we were well fed.

I wrote a 3 star review for a few specific Reasons. I spent a few weeks planning a birthday for my mother, and I was attempting to iron out some details, in order to do that, I needed to speak to the Manger of Heritage Ranch, I called in 3 times to request a call back from the manager, and never received one, I inquired 3 times via Facebook Messenger, they stated they would forward my message, and I never got a call back. After giving up, I went ahead with a Carriage ride / Dinner package for my parents, and they went, They stated the food was great, they were impressed with the 5 course meal, the bottle of wine and box of chocolates at their table, and they said the Carriage ride was nice and relaxing, tho they were disappointed there wasn't a lot to see during the route. The front desk staff were great and easy to work with, friendly service. This easily could have been a 5 star review had I actually received a call back as per my 6 requests.

Chad Rider

Amazing destination for a romantic getaway / evening.. horse drawn carriage ride with some top level food and service.. the staff were so friendly and wonderful.

Kolbie Sunshine

My dog loves the walking trails! I haven’t seen it in the summer time yet but even during the snowy winter it was a fun place to get fresh air ????

Lucas Evanochko

A great place for a visit! Walking/biking trails, playgrounds for the kids, and a restaurant too! Located right beside the Alberta Sports Hall of Fame, you can stop here to stretch your legs while travelling north on highway 2. Loads of trails (paved and not) to explore, a stocked trout pond, and easy access to the Red Deer city trail system.

Coralie Di Massa

We stop here at the park to let our son stretch his legs and run around for a few minutes. It is such a well maintained and clean area. No bathrooms by the playground, and I really don't know where they are (although I'm sure there is something nearby), but the park is amazing. I highly recommend stopping by to just rest if you are driving by.

Ken Devoe

Always a favorite place of ours. You can ride or just watch others. Great place to walk around. One of the nice spots to be outside in Red Deer

Kelly Harkema

This recreational area is so beautiful and well maintained. The horses are so friendly as well. I enjoy taking my clients here for walks as well as my family. It's a great place to get outdoors and get the fresh air in your lungs. In the summer you can also do some fishing in the pond down in the trails.

Carolyn Nichol

Love it walk it everyday ????

D.D. B.

It's a really nice place food is good. Its seems as though it's out in the country but it's not. People are friendly and are happy. The horse trails are good. Its family thing take kids and adults for a ride.

Gwen Nam

Strictly reviewing about the dishes we got from the restaurant. Nothing special but just an average food.

Rhonda Bakke

Beautiful place for a picnic and a walk.

corey fitch

Took my son and 2 of his friends for a party and trail ride on his birthday. The scenery is incredible and our guide, Montana, was excellent. My son absolutely loved it! Big Thanks to Heritage Ranch

Maxine Morrison

It was her first time on a horse and had a blast! We will for sure be back. Lunch after was so yummy! Great way to spend Canada Day during Covid 2020!????????????????

nick cook

First time here and it was Durring covid. The pet friendly patio is a nice touch, unfortunately it doesn't get afternoon /evening sun and this is more of a dinner establishment I think, not did they have gas heaters in our area so that was unfortunate but they did supply a thin blanket. I think they try and use alot of local produce so a big up to them for supporting local, my bison and the veggies /micro greens were local I think (they should probably promote that but they only have on the menu where the bison came from). It was the best bison I've ever had in my life, same as my girlfriends wow it was great and I'm glad as I got what I paid for. My girlfriend got some sort of beef, she used to work in many local restaurants and said it was good but over priced for what it was. We had a nice appy that was really good to can't remember what it was but that and 2 drinks was 210$. Its the first time since covid we went out and sat down at a restaurant and this establishment is known as one of the best in town to my understanding so I was happy to pay the cost. However my girlfriend probably has a better idea of cost to quality so that along with the no sun patio /no heater has me giving it 4 stars. Everyone's building nice patios due to covid and this place should invest in a patio upgrade. I will think about coming back when I can go inside, or maybe when I visit some other top places so I understand cost to quality in this region.

Brian Estey-Hevey

Heritage Ranch is a beautiful place located just on the edge of east Red Deer. It is a great place if you love horses and nature. There is also a nice little restaurant at the ranch. There is a great trail system at heritage ranch that links to the rest of the Red Deer trail system. And there is a nice large park for kids to play at. The Alberta Sports Hall of Fame is also located next to the ranch beside the hiway.

Steven Greenwood

Heritage Ranch has an awesome place. The trail system the people are friendly. Most importantly they allow the Spartan community to put on an event like no other. I personally want to say thank you to Heritage Ranch for allowing us to run the Spartan Race

David Ratcliffe

Had a fantastic time here, we took our company outing to the park and tried the man tracker activity. Was highly rated by all out participating staff. If your in need of something a bit different and fun I would give it a try!

Tiffany Kjenner

If you're into running, cycling or just taking a scenic tour, Heritage Ranch has some of the most beautiful trails. They are paved the whole way with some dirt paths that veer into the trees. If you're feeling like going off the beaten path the dirt paths are well kept.

KAT T

My daughter was married here down by the pond, absolutely magical! The dinner was lovely and the staff were amazingly attentive to your every need! Cannot say enough about this experience! Awesome!!!

Rachel Ewurum

Quite great but wish the pony rides were a bit longer.

Sam Vandermark

Loved the horse riding and the meal at the restaurant was absolutely delicious - very nice staff!

S Havell

Great walking trails with a mix of ponds, forest, and river views. A must see for anyone wanting to experience the Red Deer outdoors.

Viesta Morrison

We had a large party cancel on us a few years back for our already paid for sleigh ride, so over the year we used our credit to eat at the West Lake Food, they never disappointed ..food was always so delish, service was second to none and the atmosphere is just lovely, we love Heritage Ranch and the people at West Lake Grill...... great dining experience~

Mars Herbervore

Nice paths great place to take the dogs for an onleash walk

Susan Godfrey

I love this place. The restaurant is fabulous! Never had a bad meal there ever. Staff is good and the place doesn't play loud music while trying to eat or have conversation with friends. The winter light sleigh ride is wonderful. They give you blankets and hot chocolate. The stairs I use to exercise on and the park is grand. There's also a small play area for kids. This is a lovely place to go for the day.

Carrie Gregson

We did the Brunch & Brewery tour at Heritage Ranch for our company Christmas party and it was a 5-star event! This is the second time we've done this and all of the hosts, waitresses and bartenders at Heritage Ranch were absolutely spectacular! The hospitality there is second to none and the food was excellent.

Karen Dorval

Have to say one of the best restaurants in the area. Fantastic quality. And service was excellent as well

Divya Nishtala

It was a wonderful experience, our guides were amazing. We went for trail horse ride. I was initially very scared and was planning to give up. But our guide was very helpful and asaured me it will be great. It was and I am glad we found this ranch. The horses are well trained and amazing. The trail is beautiful.

mark mark

Great rest area and park for kids to burn off energy.

evil hotepp

Did the night time sleigh ride and was well done well organized and a perfect half hour date night

The Lily Show

Heritage ranch is beautiful!! One of my favorite spots in Red Deer. Pros: - Beautiful walking and biking trails, theres both paved and unpaved trails as well as a bridge over the river. The paved trail is also wheelchair accessible. - 2 larger parks both right near the parking lot so lots for little ones to do. - They have stables right by the main building where you can go pet the beautiful horses - They offer carriage rides, trail rides and pony rides for the little ones. - The resteraunt is nicely decorated and has pretty great food. - It is fairly easy to find and is right off hwy 2 - The have lots of awesome events here such as foam fest (obstical course for adults in foam.), wine tasting, date night specials, mothers and fathers day buffet (we do the fathers day one and it's always delicious), pumpkin picking, beautiful winter carriage ride to view all the christmas lights and lots of other cool events through out the year. Cons: - The food is a bit more expensive but better quality than most places. - Not a huge menu selection, but still an ok variety of dishes. - I find the pony rides pretty over priced. I believe it is $10 to do two laps around a circle. Which in total lasts only a couple minutes. It's ok if your child only wants to ride once or if you're only paying for one child. But if you have multiple children or your child wants to ride a few times it gets rather expensive for what it is. Overall I find some of things to be a bit pricey here but for the most part they are worth it. I highly recommend checking out Heritage Ranch it's a truly beautiful place.

Trevor

First off when booking for a "DATE night" package, the price is for a single person? Last time I checked a date usually includes yourself and one other! Second to charge gratuity before you recieved the service is not how that works! Gratuity is received for good service! If I did not like the service or the waiter\waitress was not great, the gratuity reflects that! To charge gratuity before you receive a service is blatantly scamming people and overcharging!

Sylvia Bilodeau

Delightful! My husband and I had a delicious dinner.Service was excellent. The sleigh ride was very nice, but pricey. It is definitely a romantic setting.We will go back.

Tricia Leger

Beautiful scenery and horses, good food and awesome trails, great place to bring the family

Tamara Traub

Fabulous spot for dinner. Nice view, great patio and the food is excellent. I ordered the striplion and it's probably close to the most flavourful I've ever had. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is the restaurant decor could use some sprucing up and my cappuccino was a little thin.

Jessica Sanderson

I enjoyed the food a lot and the atmosphere. There were a lot of flies though, which I suppose is to be expected with a ranch, but I have also been to a fair share of horse events and barns that had far less flies.

The Manitoba Redneck Channel

The walking path was very nice and easy to walk on. The fall colors are very beautiful right now

Kayla English

We frequented Heritage Ranch and the Westlake Grill when we lived in Red Deer for the excellent food, service and location. Now living in BC we enjoy it almost every time we come back to Red Deer.

Andrew Wiebe

Heritage Ranch has hosted our company functions a number of times over the years and the food, service, and ambience is always top notch!

Kendra Jamieson

Just went on a trail ride and it was an awesome experience! My guides were fantastic and the scenery was beautiful. The horses were absolutely lovely too! I can't wait to go again!

Janet Ferris

The sleigh ride was great! Loved the driver. Deserves a raise. However, it's a shame they passed out the wrong menu so we didn't eat after driving two hours to get there. All in all 3 out 5.

Dustin Lawtey

Best spot in all Red deer.

Dianna Jensen

I had an amazing pre-wessing meeting with Kim ! She put my jitters to rest! I can't wait for the day!

A. Rich

A nice walk right off Hwy2. Dog friendly

Scott Rypstra

This is a nice little taste of the countryside, nestled on the outskirts of town. Great place for a walk, see some horses, or have a delicious meal.

Joline Mansnatcher

Cheery little ride :)

April Poupart

Just had my daughter's birthday dinner here! The service was wonderful and the food was pretty tasty as well!

Charlene Watson

Nice playground for kids an greatbplac3 to take walks. Also the restaurant food is super yummy even if it is a little pricey.

Stephan Gabos

Green zone along the Red Deer river with plenty of walking trails in mature forest, ample parking and many picnic areas with tables. It's suited for outdoor activities. There is a restaurant and horse coral offering viewing and trail rides in carts/sleds. Located beside the Alberta Hall of fame dedicated to sporting memories. Family oriented.

Belle B

Always a great place to visit. Perfect for nature walks, horse drawn carriage rides, date nights and fantastic food!

R Madadi

Beautiful park. Top notch fishing at Mitchell Pond on the fly. Small fish but there are some big ones in there. Park closes at 9pm, if you're fishing later than that, park outside the gates or you may get locked out.

Alexandre Contreras

This is a great location for Spartan Race

Albert To

Pony ride is fun, but $10 for 2 small round (2mins) might not enough for kids

Stacy Smith

Lovely place for families to spend time outside. Walking around, enjoying nature, seeing and feeding the horses. However, the restaurant is costly and usually requires reservations. They have different schedule events that are on the upper end for cost but the experience is often worth it!

Sandy Best

This pace is amazing. Wonderful food, beautifully presented and served by friendly attentive staff. All at a fair price! I would give it 10 stars if possible and we will be back

Dan (Dan)

Went during winter. Those stairs are a death trap. Very nice trails though.

Sydney Ducharme

We did the Carriage Date night for two through heritage ranch and Westlake Grill. The experience is amazing and the found was incredible. I will say that it is so expensive but definitely worth it to celebrate big moments. It is fine dining and it definitely take a while for the whole experience so make sure you slot yourself plenty of time. There also seemed to be a bit of confusion and there was some double booking for the carriage ride, but the staff took it in stride and made sure everyone was taken care of. Still highly recommend even with the oopsies.

Kara Beggs

Absolutely lovely venue. The nicest service and staff, beautiful wine and dinner, and a great place for a scenic walk around after or before dinner. Highly recommend for an evening.

Rob Merkley

Tried to book 13 people for a family sleigh ride where I was told we would have to pay for 20 or book the 10 person package and tell 3 of our guests they can't come or go on their own at a different time. Thought I may have misunderstood, but had this confirmed by a Manager. Pretty poor business model to say NO to potential customers and turn away business.

Dennis Allan

Unique place for date nights (year-round!!), indoor/outdoor weddings, or anytime you want to feel like escaping, without even leaving Red Deer.

Tides of Change and Breaking Cycles

There are some nice walking trails that lead into red deer and the red deer river. Great place for a morning jog or afternoon hike. The facility at heritage ranch has a lot to offer from birthday parties to wedding day celebrations. Many exciting things to do here.

Christian Pommer

Great food, great service and a wonderfully warm ambiance. Excellent venue for a date night or a small private function.

jennifer rondeel

Expensive but was a good experience We did the sleigh ride lights. Wish it had been a little longer despite being -30. Beautiful lights

Chris Sirois

Great host for the Spartan Races

Сергей Слободян

Nice place for a walk, cycling or jogging. Very peaceful atmosphere on the trail.

Brian Swansburg

It's an awesome place to go with your kids to feed the horses and hike in a country setting.

Rene Jaspar

Actually I visited the TOURIST centre to pick up brochures. Found out that the lady managing the ALBERTA SPORTS HALL OF FAME, IS COUNCILLOR MEGAN HANSON FROM SYLVAN LAKE

Daniel Nyman

Nice!! Next time we want to take a trail ride. Beautiful location.

Kevin Halliday

Great place had the spartan race here

TheLimeinacoconut

The service was quite good here, the staff were all friendly and attentive. The price was a bit higher than I was expecting but for the quality of the meal I cant really complain. It was quite delicious!

Susanne Loutas

Was enchanted as soon as the road ducked between trees, and I could see a few horses. We ate excellent food, and the mood was relaxed and quality.

Helisha Benusic

We went on a sleigh ride and liked it. It was something you do once every few years. It was expensive. But it is nice for a treat every few years.

Kryspin Drozdek

Stopped by for a pony rides and that made my kids happy. We are planning to do some trail ridings, but need to wait for kids to grow up a little. It's also a great starting point for bike rides down the river.

My Day Off

We love hiking around Heritage Ranch and down to Mitchell pond for fishing. We caught 5 rainbow trout today for the BBQ. It's a great place to have a picnic, fish, hike or just relax. We haven't had a chance to eat at the restaurant yet with the restrictions but we plan on trying it as soon as we can! A+

Thej's Life

Heritage Ranch is a beautiful spot to spend a nice family day! Good fishing, stocked pond, picnic tables, restaurant and horse and carriage rides! Mitchell pond is right down at the bottom of the path & offers great fishing! Check out my youtube channel for a full review of the fun family day we had at Heritage Ranch!

Jennifer Thomas

This Ranch has no Admission fee. It's a big Ranch . There are many healthy horses here ,old carriages etc. There is a Restaurant. The view and passage to the river is beautiful. The horse are very friendly and my kids loved them.

Susanne L

Food was reasonably priced for the quality. I ordered the special (salmon baked in filo pastry with a cream curry potato soup) which was delicious. All other dishes ordered were very good, although one beef dish was supposed to be medium-well but instead was well-done. A vegetarian meal was also created on request for one member of our group. Service was very friendly and food arrived as quickly as expected.

Debbie Berg

We went here for Thanksgiving dinner last night and it was fantastic! I would highly recommended this restaurant.

Kristy Johnson

Food was meh. Expensive. Took a long time. I have heard so many great things and I cant say I'd go back again.

Bill Briscoe

This place is dangerous. There are bears, mountain lions, and worst of all, sketchy people. Hide your wives, hide your kids, hide your wives, because they will come through your window. There are bugs and stuff, and they will bite you on your face.

Kendall Hamilton

Great walking trails during the day, sketchy walking trails during the night. The horses are friendly if you are patient, and they have a dog friendly patio outside if youd like to bring your fur baby along to the restaurant.

Dallas O

Great lunch and dinners, awesome that they have a dog patio so we can eat lunch with our dog and not have to leave him at home or outside tied up.

Robert Mudde

I hear great things about their food but my single visit wasn't profound. The beef tasted like the barn...but maybe that's what organic tastes like.

brandin lemmon

Heritage Ranch/Westlake Grill was the venue for our 34 guest Wedding. Kim and the rest of the staff did a wonderful job setting up for our ceremony down by the pond and for our reception located in the side room at Westlake Grill, the way I envisioned it. Our guests loved the carriage rides to the pond, said the food was the best food they ate at a wedding, and were happy with the drink waitresses. I wish we would have let Westlake do our dessert as i was disappointed with the caterer we used. Plenty of photo opportunities! My only recommendation to the staff would be that the day staff and evening staff communicate more as the evening staff were taking away my dishes/glasses when they were cleaning up, but this was minor. I highly recommend Heritage Ranch/Westlake Grill for small weddings, i cannot thank them enough for making my wedding day so special. Hands down, they did a flawless job. - Koralyn Lemmon

Iglesia Hispana Victory Red Deer, AB

¡It was awesome! Great vives.

Dale

Best trail system for miles

Dan Schiltroth

Brunch on the dog friendly patio was excellent. Not the cheapest meal in town, but my loaded omelette was brilliant. Once you add in the pleasant service (Jonah today) and the outdoor atmosphere, it's easily worth a few bucks over the city breakfast place. Will be back, with the dog, for a beautiful hike and good refreshment.

Josainis Photographer

Walking on those trails is good for the soul ????

CPTVanderklok

Nice people beautiful walking trail. Definitely going back

Terry Smales

Ordered the date night package for a very important night. Good concept but horrible value. Don’t recommend this.

michael stasica

Lovely trails, wish I could share them with Horses, maybe MTB bike here only on 3/7 days of a week

379 PETES

Heritage Ranch is a great place to unwind , gate way to the greatest trails start here

Jackie Morrison

Wonderful winter wonderland for cross country skiing. Very easy and well groomed trails and various paths are available. I'll be back here ALOT !!

Kam “Korviss”

Amazing trails, horses, fishing ponds, a river, bike paths, 5 star restaurant.. what more do you want

vanessa sheppard

Wonderful place my man proposed New years eve absolutely beautiful ???? slay ride proposal ????

luau donna

Beautiful sleigh ride this week at the Ranch

steve spiegelmann

Great walking, biking trails, lucky to have this in Red Deer

Kamal Khan

Love the horses at this place. Good walking track from ranch to Bower ponds.

Glen Peters

I represent a hard rock band called Revolution Engine. We played in the new event centre on site at Heritage Ranch. The space sounded great. It is set up well for loading in for decor companies, customers, and musicians/performers. Great staff! Great team! Great brisket! We had an amazing time and can’t wait to come back to check out this destination eatery as well!

Jennifer L'Ecluse

Beautiful paths that snake far along the river. The paths are well maintained.

Alexis Melanson

Burger for lunch was delicious! Service was great, cant wait to go back for another lunch date.

Rob Van

I always enjoy my stop here.

Priscilla Holmes

Great place for your children to play the park is awesome!!????????????????

Belle

Fantastic place to enjoy nature in both the winter and summer. What I truly enjoy in the nice intimate dining room, great food and good atmosphere.

Jordan Thompson

The smoked brisket eggs benedict is fantastic. I'll be thinking about it for weeks!

Tara Pennier

Great place, easily accessible, lots of grest activities and seasonal events go on here. Wheelchair accessible lots of parking, wonderful trails to access. Horseback riding lessons, sleigh rides in winter.

Ruslan Koba

Nice place. Food is very delicious. Also there is kids playground just near the parking lot. For those who like horses ???? that place would be a good find. I personally use Heritage ranch as a start point for biking or running ????‍♀️. It's about 10km trail ???? that goes along the river and through the forest. Highly recommend it for family visits too.

Shane C

We were just at the Ranch for brunch, I have no idea why this restaurant is not lined up out to the stables and maxed out for reservations. I had one of the best breakfasts I have ever had, sausages and bacon were of the best quality and French toast with house made brioche! The attention to detail here is amazing and the service was excellent and prompt as well. The restaurant can be a little pricey, but I don't mind paying well for this kind of excellence. I'm not sure Red Deer has another restaurant that is quite this good.

Adam H

Great food. Nice atmosphere. Really enjoyed ourselves for a birthday meal. Will definitely be going back!

Angelica Narain

Good and service were both terrible. We had the worst experience ever! They forgot to bring out our orders 2times in the same night so we just sat there for 45 minutes and the waiter was like I'm soo sorry I totally forgot!! Not expected for the price we pay to dine there. Food is nothing special. Bland at best.

Vesta Seibel

Kids love to come play in there, good big playground without sand (they have 2, other one has sand), horses, benches.

Adam Tomalty

Always a fun place to visit and walk around the trails

C. VIEJON

It's a nice place to unwind and for a walk. A little cold for kids to take along for now. However, it's a great place for kids for pony's ride and what not in summertime. Good for the whole family overall.

Spencer Malone

Amazing place for a romantic dinner. Staff is extremely helpful if you are looking to purpose.

June Rivers

Heritage Ranch is a great place for a special occasion or a romantic, candle lit date night. The food is high caliber, and the surrounding setting is so lovely. The intimate carriage ride is fun and scenic in winter or summer. Hay rides are also offered where more family or friends can join in the fun. In the winter, the carriage ride is lit of with a myriad of lights twinkling in the trees. A lovely, tasty experience every time.❤

Diane Brown

Staff in the restaurant and in the stables were very pleasant. Laid back setting and good food.

Amanda Cardinal

Cocktails were great! Loved all the different kinds of sangria! Apple was my favorite by far. The food was pretty decent, but the simple burger was a better hit at our table over the ravioli (you only get 1 big one!), the brisket and the bacon wrapped filet. The best part was the dog friendly patio!! That alone will bring us back time and time again!

Liza Morrison

Jerich my little man love this place. We surely comes once month. Great service and we love the patios. Feels like we're out of Red deer at all.

Liz Rennie

Fun family friendly place. 2 playgrounds and decent parking. Friendly helpful staff

CITIZEN FOUR

Did the sleigh ride with the girlfriend one winter. It was cool and I got points for an untraditional gesture, but the sleigh is super close to the guy riding the horse, so felt a bit odd him being in ear shot. I couldn't whisper sweet nothings without buddy hearing every word. kinda awkward but a cool idea. Oh and the christmas lights were decent. The hot alcoholic beverage afterward was probably the highlight lol

Joanne White

I'd give them more stars but the site only allows for 5???? The food here is locally sourced and AMAZING!! The selection is just the right amount. Be careful though, everything really is as tasty as it reads, so it will take a while to make up your mind. We've eaten here quite a few times already. And we've covered every meal time, holiday and special occasion. You may find the prices a bit high, you won't mind as every mouthful is so worth it. Not only is the food outstanding, you'll also find that the staff is also outstanding. They're so friendly and pleasant to all of there customers. You'll also like the location, it makes you feel like you've escaped the city and ended up in the country, while your still in the city. So if your looking for a very fine meal, where everything that your about to eat is fresh and oh so tasty. A place where you can sit back and relax in a comfortable, cozy restaurant in a perfect location. Where the staff make you feel like your special, then you'll have come to the right place, ahhhhhh and mmmmmmm

Eric A

I went to a kid's birthday party here. Still have temporary tattoos from it. Would birthday here again. Good game ya'll.

iamrrabbit

Very beautiful walking trail ... and scenic view

Lynn Brumby

What a great place to stroll through enjoying the views or plants along the way. Great walking/running tracks. Perfect.

Wendee Pitt

Lovely non conventional breakfast charcuterie board!, so refreshing, tables on the patio respectfully spaced. I would go back again.

Jerry Rush

We were all impressed with the very fine dining experience. Best lamb shank I've ever had.

Twitch

Lots of nice sights for the sleigh ride but some interactions with the driver and facts about the ranch would have been nice. Had the 5 course dinner date meal. The Hors D’oeuvre was ok but I think 2 or 3 would have been more appealing. The soup was phenomenal and my wife enjoyed the salad alot. The main course tho took roughly an hour to prepare which was absolutely ridiculous in my opinion it was extremely delicious although but still 1 hour?? The palate cleanser was pleasant and the desert was ok just your ordinary tiramisu nothing special. Pictures are posted on order of courses

A

Perfect spot and stop to start your walk/hike with family/pets or just by yourself..

Colleen Cramton

Quick meal, no senior menu but was great to have kids menu. Just enough for the long drive. Good ☕

Trina Klone

I love this place we had my Husband's Christmas Party here .Even though they had over 100 people service was great,you never had to wait on nothing. I would recommend this place 100% Great atmosphere

Christopher Meyers

The restaurant is very pricey, but the trails and location are beautiful. Also horses are there so if you are into them this is your place.

Pankit patel

One of my favourite place to go for a walk

John Kennedy

The food was delicious, I started with scallops served on cornbread which to die for, followed by a braised blackberry and saskatoon berry lamb served on mashed potatoes and carmelized vegetables it was very succulent and then topped it off with a dark chocolate mousse with BlackBerry sauce and a coffee. I want with my company as part of a wrap exercise. The portions and food served looked and smelled good all around, highly recommend this hidden gem.

Lauren MacKay

Really nice place! Great trails. Playgrounds for kids. Horses. Great views of the river

Craig Turner

I've visited Heritage Ranch in the winter and did a horse pulled sleigh ride with my family. It was great! I was there today running the Spartan Sprint race. The terrain and landscape was great for the race!

Medayah McGarvey

Food was amazing, waitress was super friendly and accommodating. Very private and boujee section for the date night special. Ended up leaving before the horse ride but was the food was definitely worth the hype! Also very holiday/christmas vibes. Will be back :)

Judy Reimers

We had our family photos taken here. Beautiful scenery. They have amazing bike / hiking trails throughout here.

Rae Ewen

Visited Heritage Ranch to walk the trails with a friend and her pup. The trails are all maintained and clean. There is at least two playgrounds there for the kids. The horses are great to look at while enjoying a walk and there is also a restaurant there. Beautiful place to visit.

Amitinder Dhaliwal

A nice place to take a break from your road trip. The ambiance, food, and the staff - everything is perfect about this place.

Vanessa Polak

Love the patio in the summer. If you get a chance you MUST try the veggie taurine. It is to die for.

Jann Dyck

Beautiful destination in our city, with awesome trails and even one of the best restaurants in town!

Fa Ish

What an incredible experience! Our horses, Ruby and Pearl, were Belgian beauties that took us on a fairytale ride around the ranch. The chauffeur was such a gentleman who gifted us a beautiful leather saddle ornament that he handmade. Our meal came in a large box and we opened it to an amazing dinner beautifully lit with Christmas lights (Inside the Box!) We opted out of the wine and didn’t expect anything in return but the owner went above and beyond to give us a big bag of gourmet coffee and homemade jam instead. When he learned we came from Calgary for our first anniversary and would be having a car picnic in sylvan lake, he ran back to the kitchen and gave us real silverware including high quality steak knives. The food was delicious and the steak was to die for. This is simply an exemplary model of above and beyond. Thank you Heritage team for making our anniversary so awesome! P.S- Tyson the pupper was an excellent host as well!

Patricia Gladdish

Daniel D Kitteringham

I've only ever drove through to highway 2 if I'm in the neighbourhood beside this place but, I've heard great things. ????

amanda mcnair

Met my grandpa for brunch here and was delightfully surprised. The food was delicious, the prices were very reasonable and the service was amazing!

Karri-ann Flater

I have been here several times for breakfast to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries, or just coffee with a friend. The breakfast menu has evolved a few times over the years. They used to have a brunch buffet, then a 3-course brunch, and now they just offer menu items. The food is always amazing. I love how they use local sources. It has a unique dining area (several levels of seating space with big windows and beautiful views.) It has a cozy ranch feel, but also slightly elegant. It is a beautiful space and am always pleased with the experiences I have there.

Lela Wagman

Went last week for supper. We had the seafood/meat platter. It was lobster, scallops, shrimp, chicken and beef. The lobster was meh. The shrimp were no good. The scallops however were delish. Overall too expensive for the food. Not to mention after leaving a $60+ tip, and the server didn’t even say thank you. Won’t be back.

Kyle Carriere

Great spot for walks and runs, trails are always well kept

Shoba Newman

Seems to be a beautiful place to visit, as I pass by often and look at the horses. The sports museum, helpful staff, informative and very clean toilet room.

Alana Merklin

Beautiful walking trails, well maintained

Boyd Langston

Great experience, great food, great area. Will definately be back.

Kaity Marcotte

I'm not really sure what all the hype is about the restaurant.. We have heard many good things, but it was sort of disappointing. The Brussel Sprouts were burnt, but we ate them because we were starving, and I don't like to complain. When my Lamb Shank came out just as burnt I had to send it back. The marscapone, blackberry and mint flavours I was expecting was completely lost in the char. The waitress was very helpful however and had another dish rushed out to me.

Chris Kim

Been here twice and the food is amazing! You do pay for it but this is easily the best or top 2 restaurants in Red Deer

Carlos D

Quite possibly some of the best food in Red Deer

Elle Elizabeth

Great little spot to stop and enjoy nature ????

Jonatan Roy

It is a nice place for all ages to enjoy a walk or even a nice horse back riding. It is so warm and peaceful to be close to those majestic creatures.

Josh Van Arnam

Nice place. Was a bit disappointed with the carriage ride as it was too close to the highway so it was quite noisy. Food was amazing and the service was awesome

JCSaddlery

Love it! The ranch hands are very friendly and the horses are great!

Chris Ford

Great place to take the kids to feed the horses, fantastic bike trails. Free. Pick a nice day and this is a great place to spend it.

Rob Rogowski

Special nights out or even when you take the kids on a bike ride and need a frosty one. Great little gem.

mindy van zwol

After a beautiful sleigh ride enjoyed a nice romantic meal

Blake Goehring

We went to the Westlake Grill for dinner last night without a reservation and likely during their busiest time of the night. They were very accommodating and seated my wife and I promptly. Our server, Julie, was amazing from the get go and frequently checked up on us as we enjoyed our drinks. There was a little blip with the kitchen which was understandable considering the time we were eating at. Julie and the managing staff handled the situation incredibly well and resolved the issue quickly. We have ate here many times and will continue to do so because of their excellent service (Julie especially), and the food experience they offer which is second to none in Red Deer! Blake and Jen Goehring

Joshua Tremblay

Great little park, with horses and a cute little grill. Great for a lunch break in Red Deer throughout your travels.

Alexander Sloat

It was awesome and so beautiful I can't wait to go out there again soon and I love it out there so happy and the people there r so nice and all the horses r so nice and so cute.

Linda Parliament

The Westlake Grill is an excellent restaurant, such a nice evening there , delicious food , wonderful servers. They have some nice wines that I've enjoyed . Love the garden fresh vegetables . Kids enjoy eating there too .

Dustin Benjamin

One of the best restaurants in Red Deer by far!!! My wife and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary with their date night package. it may be a little on the pricey side but worth every penny!!!

Maureen Neujahr

I have all fond memories of this place. - got engaged here - Christmas parties - wine tasting - engagement photos Food is amazing every time Service is outstanding 10/10 recommend every time.

Tara Halford

We liked to go to Westlake Grill quite regularly. We have had breakfasts, luches and on special occasions, enjoyed the Chef's Table features. But after last night, I do not believe we will be giving them our business anymore. We have a party of 6, and there were very few other people there. After we ordered our food, it took over an hour for us to get it. Not once did the waitress apologize for the wait or ask us if we would like to refill our drinks. She even seemed annoyed when my 7 year old wondered how long it might be. My scallops in my appetizer were raw, ad again, no apology or anything. When the food final did come, the steak that was supposed to be medium rare was actually well done and barely warm. If I am going to pay $50 for a steak, I would hope it to be cooked as requested. Throughout the meal the waitress did not ask how everything was and did not clear our plates, Then as we waited for the bill, we had to walk to the front door to leave for her to acknowledge us and finally give us the bill. If I am going to spend $250 + on a meal for my family, my expectations are far higher in regards to service and quality. I am highly disappointed with the West Lake Grill.

Tim Phillips

Great place for a stroll, or an equestrian adventure. River access, stocked pond for fishing, x-country skiing in the winter, and a fantastic restaurant to boot!

Dennis “Potato Cannon” Lacasse

Love this place just had the Sasquatch burger, it was soo good.

Tammy Ross

Wonderful carriage ride. Was so relaxing and enjoyable. Gourmet food and service was great. Will go again.

Tiffany Mahe

Great night out for a picnic, the mosquitos are bad bring bug spray!

Robert Gephart

A nice place to stop when a break is needed on the #2 Highway

Lane Bratt

If you want some nice trails to go down try here. There is a roughly 5 km hike that leads to the river.

Natalie G

Nice place to walk. Great trails. Very good restaurant. Clean bathrooms.

Shelby Seib

This place is amazing! It has these long beautiful paths to walk. A really cool restaurant, and a community fire pit!

Susan Roy

Oh my lord. You love steak this is the place and the folks are amazing. Service, Food,Ambiance and horse-drawn rides even for intimate romantic two. Just fall in love all over again here.

Mohammed Haydari

Gorgeous trails, amazing view, and perfect for anyone and everyone.

ninjacookie33

Great place for a walk, ride, or meal

Josue A. Campos

Taking advantage of the Amazing weather we went for a bike ride! 7km nice work out! departing from HR up to Bower Pond, the roads are in good shape! Nice view! I’m strongly recommend take the change and explore that trials

Lisa Supruniuk

Great area to go running, walking or biking! Lots of cool dirt trails and beautiful scenery. Definitely one of my favorite parks in Red Deer!

Cindy Tschirren

Best anniversary night ever. Carriage ride is beautiful and the food is amazing

Melissa deRidder-Potts

Beautiful place, great for runs, bike rides, horses there, restaurant

John Hynes

Walking trails are nice. Nice little pond for fishing, and horse trails if you want to ride horses.

Sasha Sadowski

The staff here are amazing, exceptional customer service. I went to check it out to see how the horses looked before i booked a slegh ride for my family. The horses looked happy and very well cared for. I cant wait to go on a magical ride with my family. A special thanks to Kim Kemmler for taking such good care of my families needs. I highly recommend Heritage Ranch.

Sheena Sharp

Excellent food, lovely staff! Really need to organise so food comes to table at same time for the whole table, but it was excellent when it came!!

Me

Heritage ranch used too be one of my favorites. Recently the chef has changed and so had the menu . It has allot of Indian foods and seafood now as it used too be ranch food. Still very tasty tho. Good quality, fancy place . Love the atmosphere and horses. Needs a new menu . Price is fair little high. We spent 170$ and tried the Indian feast was alright nothing too talk about. I still give them a 3 star because they do have good customer service, great atmosphere and I'll be going back . Keep on making good food !

Keegan Lang

Cool spot to check out, beautiful walking trails down by the river if you are looking to take a break from the road

Kellie Wing

Such a beautiful walk with many places for a picnic...fun at any time of year.

Melanie N

So beautiful here. I love the walking paths and the chance to see nature while in the city.

Katherine Baronasky

It's great for walks, horse trail rides, and near Alberta hall of fame for sports. Its awsome that people can walk down to the river.

Shelley Petersen

My friend and I stopped on July 7th for one of their famous Caesar’s. We waited for 20 min for a server. So I went to get a server and he took our order. It wasn’t busy at all other than a wedding reception. We waited another 10 min so we got up and left. On our way out we told the bartender to cancel the order. But what was funny he was standing there doing nothing. So that tells me he never received our order. So disappointed in the service which is unusual

Vickie Lapshinoff

Such a awesome place to walk and see nature at it best and also see the horses.

Giovanni Canu

Just left this delightful place. We wanted to try a typical thanksgiving experience for the first time in our life, and it was totally worth it. Simply astonishing. We were skeptical about the menu (like any italian, you know...), but EVERYTHING was delicious. We even brought home some leftover food, something we hardly ever do. The staff was gentle, helpful and playful. Lovely people for sure. We loved every single moment there. We definitely return soon! Grazie mille e arrivederci!

Jim Vetack

Great place for a great steak! Good service as well. One of the few places where you can get roasted brussel sprouts, a must have, they were excellent. Steaks are great too. They also have great specialty drink menu.

Kendra Pearson

The atmosphere was warm and rustic. Wait staff were informed and friendly. The food was amazing, although a tad bit pricey. I would go there again.

Pat

In July, our family held a memorial service in honor of Corinne Eleanor Dunn. We wish to thank Joel and his staff for ensuring that everything went perfect. Pat, Peter and Mac

Debby Schroeder

Great food and great Survice .a wonderful night out loved the slay ride ????

Gamiluna Hamilue

Had a great sleigh ride on Boxing Day evening with our family and grandchildren. The bonfire was burning to keep warm, hot chocolate and marshmallows available for roasting, and the lights on the trails made for a special evening. It was quite busy as five sleighs went out at one time with 1 to 3 horses on each. Pulled us down the trails that were well lit with lights in the trees. Blankets and seat pads provided to keep us warm on the sleigh. Mel was an awesome driver and we had good fun with him. Would recommend reservations. A good time was had by all.

Samuel Mcfadden

Did horse back riding and a trail walk. Super awsome experience. All the girls in the riding area super awsome.

Cynthia Hartmann

Always a great place to eat. They have changed the menu and I am not in love with it like I was the old one. We had a black tiger prawn quinoa crepe appetizer that I could have done with out. But everything else was delicious. Multiple spelling mistakes on the menu they need to do a spell check and reprint.

Andrew Page

Such a cool place to walk and sight see.

Alex Quirion

This is my favorite place to eat in Red Deer! Excellent food, service and atmosphere!

Karyn James

Excellent food, nice atmosphere. Our service wasn't the best, and it's expensive, but worth it!

Robert Z

Beyond thrilled with our recent date night here, the food was top notch, and the private horse drawn carriage was superb.

Ryan Dollar

THE BEST MEAL I've ever had!!!! This place tops my list at #1 right now and I've eaten in almost every province in Canada.

Joanne Fairlie

Went with friends for lunch. The food was excellent, and the service was both excellent and friendly. There was a fire going, which added a sense of warmth to a cold winter's day. Prices are bit higher but the service and food are worth it. We plan to return.

Lynn Sanderson

Tasty brunch however eggs were a little underdone and not very hot on first attempt. The problem was rectified quickly and satisfactorily. Bit of a fly problem meant lingering over the meal was not possible. I'd give it another try if I was in the area.

Mark Carey

The beef was excellent, the mashed potatoes were lumpy the veggies over cooked and the worst for last... The gravy for the so spicy I was unable to taste the rest of my meal and made me I'll for two days afterwards.

Lisa Woelke

Awesome place! The trail behind it amazing. Walked the trail, came back and saw some beautiful horses too.

Bob

I taught my son how to fish here and helped strengthen an already solid relationship and bonded with my daughter teaching her how to fish as well, and I fished here with my uncle before my kids were born, a very special place for the kids and i.and many more to come.thank you.

clayton amichand

Was there for a Spartan race. Clean bike paths but off trail more horse manure. Easily accessible. Limited parking. Would visit again.

Jeremy Gair

Having watched it change over the years the ranch has always been a place you can get some separation from the city yet be right on its doorstep. The trail system ties in with the rest of the cities trail systems and can be reached relatively readily from most parts of the city. The ranch itself has two parks, an observation tower and offers trail and sleigh rides. There is a restaurant on site "The Ranch" that is upper scale food but thats another review. Often athletic events (running, cross country skiing) set off from here. Lights are set up in the Christmas season and several summer activities are run here. It is close to a pond a shirt walk away and there are two accesses to the nearby river valley and its trail system. Odds are if you find yourself on the cities trails you have a decent chance of making it here which is not in anyway a bad thing.

Dennis Thomas

This place is great. We took in the date night package. Everything was perfect. Thanks for a wonderful evening.

Lara Al-hmaidat

It’s a nice place to spend a family day at.

Bradley Malcolm

It's the go to place for my wife and I to take the kids when we want to get outside. The playground has a rubber mat base so the kids don't get dirty, a large field just beside the playground, the paths are nice to walk on, the horses are friendly so you can go pet them, and most importantly it's clean. we probably make it out there 3 times a week, at least. there is so much space out there, even when it is busy you hardly notice! I strongly recommend going there!

Ronald Hunt

It was nice to feel like you were on a real ranch,In the middle of a City.

Kateryna Khoroshun

A local gem! My boyfriend and I spent an evening at Heritage Ranch, we went for a private sleigh ride and a five course dinner date after and it was amazing. The food is phenomenal, the service is just as good and the atmosphere is so welcoming and romantic. Definitely a place to return multiple times.

GXM

Pretty spot. Secluded little forest right off a busy Highway 2

We got a close look while the kids played in the small playground. Looks like a fun place to ride a bike

Albert Liu

Beautiful place to visit from Edmonton. We enjoyed the horse riding in Red Deer river valley and food at Westlake Grill here. Very friendly people at Heritage Ranch. Would definitely recommend this ranch to anyone who loves horse riding to visit.

Mushuboo

Went to West Lake Grill for lunch. Best bison burger I've ever had in my life! My only complaint would be the price but for the odd trip out to eat it's worth it! The staff is incredibly nice and the setting is beautiful.

One of my top favorite places to go for a walk. The scenery is beautiful on the trails. I also like that they have playgrounds so the little ones can have fun too.

Atmosphere is the best in Red Deer! Roast beef dinner was a little tough but the chocolate dessert was out of this world.

We had our wedding at heritage ranch in the new 3 season building a couple weeks ago. Every single detail was perfect! The food, desserts, and drinks were absolutely amazing! We can not thank all the staff that helped make our special day as amazing as it was. Thank you again for making our fairy tale day come true! ❤️
